This isn’t strictly weird or wonderful so apologies if it’s not the right place but this does seem very cheap for an all original ‘65 P bass. Only 1 photo, vendor has zero feedback, what’s the worst that could happen?

Another from that hotbed of vintage Fenders, the Canary Islands

Seller has cousins in the north of Scotland in the same business

Well, it's travelled: George Gruhn is in Nashville and now it's in The Canaries.

Wave goodbye to your £3,800......

Like the OP has said:  the seller ( 0 feedback) has not provided extensive photos nor serial number etc etc

Bank transfer or cash is always a deal clincher for me esp with zero feedback sellers in the canaries......

Not sure how useful a 12 year old letter of authenticity is either!

Anyone done a Google search with the image and seen where it has been culled from?

The description gives serial number, neck stamp and pot codes. Some photos would be good to back it up though.

I suspect you’ve missed the key point, the bass is 100% genuine, it’s just in Nashville, not Tenerife

The OP needs the money to get a camera obviously!

Can't find it on Google Image search nor at Gruhns, not even in their archive. An appraisal costs $250 for a 1965 Fender P however there.
